Early in May, having finally gotten Lucy's passport sorted we planned to go to Dublin for a week to spend time with family & meet a few more people. Sounds simple enough... Mum flew over the evening before so that I (Fi) had help with Lucy on her 1st flight as we had no idea how she would get on with it.
On the morning we were due to fly I was woken by text messages from people warning me that due to ash the airports were closed. Mum & I made a quick decision - that if we could be packed quickly we should try to go & get a train to Fishguard & catch a ferry!
